ICDP Training Course on Downhole Measurements

The International Continental Scientific Drilling Program, ICDP, kindly invites scientists from upcoming scientific drilling projects to apply for the

ICDP Training Course on Downhole Measurements

to be held June 24-28, 2019 in Kuopio/Outokumpu, Finland. This training course will encompass the different technical and scientific aspects of downhole measurements and their analysis in scientific drilling, including borehole logging under various conditions and scientific demands, seismic borehole measurements, downhole hydraulic tests, fluid logging & sampling, and fibre optical methods. The training course is recommended for graduate students, PhD students, Early-Careers and Senior Scientists involved in running or upcoming scientific drilling projects.

Deadline for application is February 15, 2019. Decisions will be communicated by end of February. Preference will be given to applicants involved in ICDP drilling projects, applicants from ICDP member countries, developing countries, and those from countries considering ICDP membership.

ANZIC Ocean Planet Workshop – EOI portal is open

Invitation to Geoscience and BioGeoscience communities to be a part of the next IODP Decadal Science plan via the ANZIC Ocean Planet workshop here in Canberra in April 14-16th 2019.

The EOI portal has now opened (https://www.eventbrite.com/e/expression-of-interest-to-join-the-anzic-ocean-planet-workshop-registration-53215012535 ). The registration site captures both those that are interested and able to attend and those that can not attend but would like to still submit a white paper suggestion to the process of determining ANZICs input to the process.

The workshop is open to ALL Australian and New Zealand researchers/ government agencies/related industry/ policy groups interested in the future of IODP’s scientific direction. We particularly encourage ECR and Mid-career researchers/staff to participate and there is a day set aside for them to provide their views. We aim to have ~150 participants and will close the invitation portal to White paper only submissions if 200 EOIs to attend is reached.

The ANZIC Office and Science Committee are excited about this major event and we hope you will ensure that your institution is well represented.

EGU 2019 session on IODP

EGU 2019 will be held in Vienna, Austria, in the 2nd week of April 2019. IODP and ICDP always have a presence at this meeting, and this year there is a dedicated IODP session. If you’re doing research that’s relevant and thinking of attending EGU perhaps you want to submit an abstract to it by the deadline of 10 Jan 2019?
